Bozeman lawmakers deal with COVID-19, virtual legislating during first half of session
Concerns over COVID-19 at the state Capitol have kept some local lawmakers in Bozeman during the first half of the legislative session.
They have participated from their homes, attending committee hearings via video, voting virtually and talking with their colleagues on the phone and on video calls.
Some local lawmakers cited the fact that many lawmakers choose not to wear masks during floor sessions or committee hearings as part of the reason they steered clear of the Capitol.
